Last year I put an insect hotel on my office window sill, & one solitary bee used one solitary cell. I felt a bit silly, but when I looked at it just now, the bee had hatched and there are now nine potential bees for next year! It won't solve all the bees' problems, but it gave me a lift.

Supplies for a long weekend of near-finalising the thesis MS, before going cold turkey (aka sugar free) for Lent. Feeling weirdly calm. There's still lots of rough corners to smoothe, but it feels doable now. Ten days to submission.

I made gluten-free quinoa-and-coconut cupcakes (with edible glitter) and took them to work. They were almost all gone before I could take a pic. This is the last one, & here's the recipe:

If I had to have a throne, I'd want one like this: in the air, amid plants, on the same level as everybody else.
